MARSH Seminar – Managing Risk to Drive Business Growth

by caaa
“In an ever-changing business environment, both legislatively and competitively, it is important an organisation exploit all opportunities to grow their operations. Yet each of those opportunities will carry risk which must be analysed and mitigated to ensure the upside is achieved. Through the use of Enterprise Risk Management in both strategic and discrete decisions, an organisation can embed a process that will assist in identifying and analysing risks allowing pre-emptive mitigation actions. On that basis the potential to drive business growth is improved through risk-based decision making.”

This Workshop is Designed For : Legal practitioners, accountants, company directors, CFO, CEO, M&A consultants, investors, financiers, academic researchers and students in accounting & business studies…etc
